Jack Grealish opens up on celebration promise as young England fan responds

Jack Grealish has opened up on his special celebration for Finlay in the wake of England's thumping 6-2 win over Iran - with the youngster dubbing it as "the best thing ever!".

Grealish netted England's final goal to cap a fine performance in the Three Lions' World Cup opener. Bukayo Saka bagged a brace for Gareth Southgate's side and Jude Bellingham, Raheem Sterling and Marcus Rashford also managed to open their accounts for the tournament.

After scoring his goal, Grealish performed a unique celebration following a meeting with Finlay, a Manchester City fan, earlier this month. The 11-year-old, who has cerebral palsy, wrote to Grealish speaking about the star's younger sister, Hollie, who also has the condition.
